It all began for the company back in 1924 when Morris Garages was founded. MG has become widely known for its sports cars, roadsters, and cabriolets. The stylish automobiles were admired by a lot of famous people including British Prime Ministers and the Royal Family. The MG Car Club appeared in Abingdon, the UK in 1930 and became one of the biggest clubs of a car brand in the world. Nowadays MG produces annually around 80,000 cars and hires about 2,500 employees.

MG Motor India started their activity in India by introducing MG Hector, India’s first Internet-connected automobile. After that, they launched a pure electric internet SUV – MG ZS and the Gloster having Autonomous Emergency Braking, Adaptive Cruise Control, and other cutting-edge features.
